When I saw a neurologist about my chronic migraines and I was taking too much of my prescription medication for it - he prescribed the following:
"-- May want to look into use of Cefaly device:
https://www.cefaly.us/
-- Natural supplements that can help prevent migraine
(min 50 % fewer headaches per month after 2 months of treatment):
-
vitamin B 2 (Riboflavin) 100 mg pills: 2 pills twice daily [any store]
-Coenzyme Q 10 100 mg three times daily [any store]
-Magnesium 500 mg daily [any store]
-Feverfew, one daily [health food stores]
There is no study addressing using them in a combined fashion. The bolded one has the best proof. "
I'd forgotten about the B2.
I started magnesium, but a higher dose as I knew I needed it.
I haven't tried the feverfew or Cefaly and I take more CoQ10.
When I initially started the magnesium and another medication not mentioned here by my specialist which is known as a migraine preventative, my migraines did decrease dramatically. They have recently made a resurgence.
Mainly there are some physical structure issues that are most likely the reason for my migraines, which my doctor is in the process of getting ruled out or in, as the case may be.
